1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveTo investigate whether variable antidepressant response may be influenced by an interaction between the serotonin transporter promoter polymorphism (5-HTTLPR) and antidepressant concentration.

methodsElderly subjects with depression treated with paroxetine (n = 110) were genotyped and assessed with the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD). A mixed-effect analysis of repeated measures was used.

resultsThere was an interaction between early paroxetine concentration and 5-HTTLPR genotype on symptomatic improvement over 12 weeks (F(18,59.5) = 1.8, p < 0.05), as well as main effects of both paroxetine concentration (F(68,55.3) = 2.4, p < 0.005) and genotype (F(2,74.2) = 5.7, p < 0.005). Paroxetine concentrations were correlated with change in HAMD scores after 2 weeks of treatment in subjects with the short (s) allele (r = 0.31, p < 0.05) but not in subjects homozygous for the long (l) allele.

conclusionThe results demonstrate a concentration-response relation for paroxetine in late-life depression and support the hypothesis for both a direct main effect and a moderating influence of 5-HTTLPR alleles on this concentration-response relation.
